DCR is a very critical factor when modding a speaker system. For me once upon a time, a reduction of the DCR seemed to lower the Q of a speaker that already had a reported low Q. The result was much less weight and impact in the lower mid-bass and...

Recently I have installed Clarity Cap MR .47 uf values at the output of my hybrid Altmann Dac. I attached the MR's to Audiopoint 1.0's using Loctite Red as the bonding material. The points pressed down into the wooden chassis of the Altmann and se...

Yea thats what I did well before the appearance of 6-9's copper. I put my audio faith in government standard issue copper. Tom

So if you had some OFC wire and some great terminations and there was a railroad track nearby and you carefully placed your wire and connector on the track and you lined up every thing with the correct geometry in anticipation of the next passing ... 
Which speaker has the biggest sound stage?
I have box speakers that are out of the box with wall to wall and floor to ceiling staging... Caravelle's they are. Stand mounted in a room that measures 21.5 by 27 by 9. The way to achieve this performance is with resonance grounding a method of ...

Review: Harmonic Precision Caravelle Speaker
Ray and RogerJust got off the phone with Robert not five minutes ago and we both spoke about how great the Caravelle's sounded and how much better they can sound now. The sonic connections are in re alignment and looking towards their great migrat...

Norm The application of resonance control to the cables was started many years ago. Though these materials added are considered passive by nature they become reactive to the electron flow as well as to floor borne and airborne vibrations. My syste... 
Grand Prix versus Stillpoints
There are many who have been consistent for the last twenty years in the applications of resonance collection and transfer to ground. The collection of resonance is supported by material selection { not plastic not carbon fiber not delrin not acry...

Isolation only exists in the absence of matter. If you design a product based on the false premise that isolation is possible in the dimensions in which we exist then you wasted your time and energy. The much more effective resolution is to design... 
Grand Prix versus Stillpoints
There has been a racking and platform system whose design from the outset was to deal with self generated resonance within components as well as airborne disturbance within the listening environment. Isolation is only possible in the absence of ma...

My ears have told me this before that I can hear the time shift blurrr of multi caps. Tom

Duelund Gents,Will the natural Q factor of a inductor be reduced with doping such as the material you apply to your product? Is the mechanical Q the resonant energy curve of the device and would doping serve to flatten and broaden this curve? Aski...

Hello Gents from DuelundSo the use of non ferrous materials for a chassis is most acceptable. I suppose its up to the listener now to decide which material within this group is most musical to their ears. Would you now answer how the choice of dop...
